Joseph Alleman
About the Artist

   For Utah artist Joseph Alleman, an important motive to paint lies in understanding his surroundings. "I'm visually compelled by various forms of shape, value, pattern, etc. Through the process of painting, I gain new and deeper insight into my subject and its surroundings as these elements combine and communicate." 
   Working  in both watercolor and oil, Joseph's work has become recognized for it's visionary portrayls of the West. Joseph exhibits regularly through gallery, juried, and invitational shows, and is a signature member of both the American and National Watercolor Societies. His work draws national attention and has been featured regularly in such current art publications as; American Art Collector, Art of the West, Watercolor Artist, Southwest Art, and The Artist's Magazine.
   Residing in northern Utah's Cache Valley, Joseph finds a great deal of inspiration  in the regions land, towns, and people which make it unique. "There is a beauty within the everyday and ordinary that only painting can reveal. I'm drawn to these subjects in hopes of making and sharing such discoveries."
